Gravity filling machines are best for liquids that do not change viscosity (thickness of the liquid) when the temperature of the product changes. Gravity fillers use simple time-based controls to fill low viscosity liquid products.

Automatic Gravity Filling Machine

The Automatic Gravity Filler is ideal for filling thin liquids with consistent viscosity. Volumetric time gravity filling method produces repeatable and accurate fill volumes. The Gravity Filler is manufactured with a heavy duty 304 stainless steel, tig-welded tube frame and reservoir. It also features user friendly PLC controls and touch screen HMI panel. This filler is capable of accommodating up to 16 heads, and utilizes an automatic product level sensing float system for filling efficiency. Many more features and options are available for even more versatility and customization. Gravity Fillers are utilized by the food and beverage, cleaning and specialty chemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and personal care industries for various filling projects. The Automatic Gravity Filler can be built to suit a wide variety of applications including sanitary, hazardous, flammable, and corrosive products and environments.

Todd, Our new gravity filler is a hit! In the short time we have had the unit we are seeing a 20% increase in through put. The unit operates better than expected. Our change-over times have been reduced to about 15 minutes, but more importantly, “dialing in” our fill weights takes only a few minutes. Products that were a struggle on our outdated overflow filler now run with efficient precision.
